‘Jackson, a bureau chief for the state Department of Labor and Industry’s Employment Relations division, and Williams, a programmer for the department, had been friends prior to their decision to enter the competition, often doing “hacker stuff” together.’

What is the DC3 Prize and who does Jackson and Williams (think they) work for?

It does not matter if they really are jester or not, they represent everything jester stands for, support it with all their hearts, happen to have the same skills and knowledge, and are stupid enough to praise it openly. And they work in the exact same way. Robin Jackson and Ed Williams represent fascism.
